Does light travel faster through water or glass?

Physics
1 answer:
Len [333]4 years ago
4 0

Answer: The refractive index or n shows the relationship between c and the speed v when light travels through a material. The equation is n=c/v. In water, the refractive index is 1.3 and in glass, it is 1.5. Therefore, light travels faster through water, than it travels through glass.

andre [41]

Answer:

0.035 N

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Charge q1 = -3.31x10^(-7) C

Charge q2 = -5.7x10^(-7) C.

Distance between them, R = 22 cm = 0.22 m

Electrostatic force between to particles is given as:

F = (k* q1 * q2) / R²

F = (9 * 10^9 * -3.31 * 10^(-7) * -5.7 * 10^(-7)) / 0.22²

F = 0.035 N

A train can speed up at a uniform rate of 0.15 m/s2. In what minimum distance can
goblinko [34]

Answer:

d = 2083.33 m

Explanation:

Given that,

Acceleration of the train, a = 0.15 m/s²

The initial speed of the car, u = 0\

Final velocity, v = 25 m/s

We need to find the minimum distance covered by the train. Let it is d. Using third equation of kinematics as follows :

v^2-u^2=2ad\\\\d=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\\d=\dfrac{(25)^2-0}{2\times 0.15}\\\\d=2083.33\ m

So, the minimum distance is 2083.33 m

As the temperature of a blackbody increases, what happens to the peak wavelength of the light it radiates
lidiya [134]

Answer:

The peak wavelength of the light it irradiates decreases

Explanation:

As the temperature of a blackbody increase, the peak wavelength of the light it radiates decreases, this follows Wien's Law.

A blackbody is an ideal substance that emits all frequencies of light and also has the ability to absorb them as well.

Wiens displacement law, explains that the position of the peak wavelength of the thermal radiation emitted by bodies can change with temperature, and as the temperature increases beyond a certain point, the wavelength begins to reduce. This often changes the colour of the light emitted from heated objects.
